If you ask me, the BlackBerry platform is a very social platform. In our Top 25 Free Apps, we have 12 social networking apps(Facebook, BBM, Twitter…), 10 productivity apps(Flashlight, Auto Reboot, BlackBerry Travel…) and 3 games. What are the odds? I guess we’re seeing steady results in the “messaging tool” area that BlackBerrys are proclaimed to be in.
I have Facebook, Twitter, BBM, Foursquare & LinkedIn installed on my BlackBerry. I have a GetGlue account & I use Rock Melt as my primary browser. I’m all about free apps and social networking. If you’re new to the BlackBerry platform then you should frequent this tab to see what social apps BB users are in to the most. UberSocial is a very popular twitter app, with Facebook connectivity, that has been in development since “09”; very popular. BlackBerry Travel is popular amongst users who have plenty of frequent flyer miles – it’s a travel tool and it can be very useful when you’re jumping from airport to airport. Crunch SMS is a pretty cool third-party IM style sms app that allows you to add custom images & colors to your conversation text and background. Those are a few of the more popular apps listed in this section. I’m sure you’ll find these and others very useful…Enjoy your BlackBerry.
